A Friend

Stranded on an island... I am alone.

In an osasis I find some peace, I am alone.

In the dark night without heat... I am alone.

Wading in the blue lagoon under the hot sun, I am alone.

Hearing the birds chirp to one another reminds me... I am alone. 

Escaping reality under the cool shade, I am alone. 

No one to confide in with the burdens of paradise... I am alone. 

In this bittersweet isolation, I would rather not be alone.
